Ambrosius Goodwill is a complex and very fascinating both to read and to tell. Exploring the genesis of Mercy through the eyes of a Stranger just arrived in our world, in every sense, was exciting. Working closely with Mirka was an experience that stimulated me right from the start, also because I have always admired his talent. I believe that Goodwill and his story will thrill both Mercy readers and those approaching these characters for the first time.

In a livid dawn in November 1851, after a trip by seven months, the settlers arrive in what will become Seattle. Hope, happiness and despair mix with the rain that soaks them to the bone. It is in this community of willing men and women that little Ambrosius Goodwill is born. His childhood passed peacefully until at the age of four, playing in the woods, the child disappeared. He stays away from home for a week. It is useless to beat the forest palm by inch, and the Journey of Knowledge undertaken by the great Indian shaman to find traces of the child does not give reassuring answers. Then, on a stormy day, Goodwill reappears on the doorstep. But he is no longer the carefree child he was before: he does not seem to suffer from hunger, cold, do not feel sleep or feel emotions. And when tragedies involving the whole community begin to happen in Seattle, it is said that it is that child who brings misfortune ... Ambrosius Goodwill, the rumors said, had been to hell and returned with death.
